Church Of St Edward

The Church of St Edward is a parish church dating from the 15th century that has not been heavily restored in the 19th century. It is constructed of stone rubble with granite dressings, featuring a granite ashlar tower and slate roofs. The church includes a nave and a chancel that has a four-light Perpendicular style east window. There are long north and south aisles; the north aisle has straight-headed windows, three four-light south windows of 14th-century design, a three-light Perpendicular east window, and granite buttresses.

The south porch is two storeys high, with a moulded four-centred arch doorway, diagonal buttresses, a tall embattled parapet, and ribbed vaulting inside. The west tower is tall and consists of three stages, with set-back buttresses, a moulded base, string courses, and large octagonal crenellated and crocketted pinnacles. A polygonal stair turret is located on the south side of the tower. The tower features two-light four-centred arch bell-openings and a three-light Perpendicular west window above the west doorway, which has quatrefoils in the spandrels and a moulded label.

Inside, there are four-bay north and south arcades with wide four-centred double-chamfered arches supported by moulded monolithic granite piers with moulded capitals. The furnishings are mostly from the 19th century, except for a notable 16th-century front cover, restored in the 1870s, which is shaped like a two-storeyed lantern octagon with a conical top. The later chancel roof includes some 15th-century carved bosses, and there is a medieval altar stone at the west end.
